Case management provides a crucial role in keeping claims on track and achieving return to work or maximum medical improvement. However, as COVID-19 restrictions present new challenges in claims management, payers are asking what to do and how to ensure injured employees stay on track with their care protocol and meet their RTW/MMI goals.

Genex experts shared important insights based on clinical best practices and real-life case strategies to help you move claims forward in the face of COVID-19 restrictions, challenges, and possible exposure.

Guide to Selecting an Electronic Payments Vendor

The workers’ compensation and auto casualty industries today are still in most cases, bogged down by paper. While it can be challenging to transition a claims operation to digital, removing paper from the claims process can provide many benefits, including improving data quality, efficiencies and effectiveness, and can help payors comply with current state regulations and adapt to future regulations. One highly effective and relatively simple method to move toward a paperless approach is implementing an electronic payment system to create a medical claims workflow where payment, fulfillment, remittance and filings can help carriers eliminate paper checks and the administrative processes and costs that come with them.

Payers and the companies they represent are eager to get injured workers back on their feet and back on the job. Many of these companies represent the heavyweights of corporate America. Major employers like manufacturers, large retailers, and airlines rely on comprehensive return-to-work programs to help their injured employees recover. The best programs do far more than safeguard the bottom line. They focus on truly addressing the needs of injured workers themselves. That’s because the longer workers are away, the less likely it is they will return to the workplace. The New York State Workers’ Compensation Board has broken down some statistics, and reports that there is only a 50 percent chance that an injured employee will return to work after a six-month absence. That drops to a 25 percent chance following a one-year absence. After two years away, the likelihood a worker will return plunges to a 1 percent chance.

Those who responded shared that they have spent over 500+ hours of personal time volunteering! While most of those are making masks (over 500+ created so far) and helping people who need food, we’re also helping at places of worship, mentoring young people and tutoring.
